I woke up this morning sore from the intense leg workout I put myself through yesterday, so I decided to skip my usual am workout. Instead I decided to get creative for breakfast. I found this recipe on a fellow fitness trainers Facebook Fanpage and thought I must give it a try! This Egg Whites Pancake stuffed with Cottage Cheese is easy to make, full of protein, and quick so you can get your day started right! I decided to add half of a grapefruit to as well. Grapefruits are low on the glycemic index, low in calories, good source of dietary fiber, rich in vitamin A, vitamin C, beta-carotene, and lycopene.

INGREDIENTS:

4-5 Egg Whites (1/2 Cup)
1/4 Cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
2 Tbsp Wheat Germ
1/2 Cup Cottage Cheese

DIRECTIONS:

Combine egg whites, almond milk, and wheat germ in a bowl, whisk together. Pour mixture into small pan (Use Pam Spray if needed). Cook on medium heat for 4-6 minutes (like a pancake) then flip over and cook for another 2 minutes or until done. Fill with cottage cheese seasoned with a pinch of pepper. Enjoy!
